What Happens After You Beat Avowed?

While Avowed's Living Lands feel expansive, the main quest is surprisingly concise. This guide details what awaits after completing Obsidian's latest RPG.

New Game Plus?

Many RPG players enjoy replaying the main quest on higher difficulties with acquired skills and gear. Unfortunately, Avowed currently lacks a New Game Plus mode at launch. However, Obsidian may add this feature via a future update or DLC based on player feedback.

Despite this, replayability exists. Avowed's choices significantly impact the story and gameplay, making a new playthrough worthwhile to explore different endings and character builds.

Endgame Content?

Avowed features four main regions, a secret final area, and a return to a major city (details withheld to avoid spoilers). High-level gear (Legendary Quality) is crucial for navigating these challenging final areas. However, this increased difficulty doesn't carry over to previous regions, nor does it unlock new ones. The inability to revisit the Living Lands as shaped by your choices is a notable omission.

Post-Game Activities:

Avowed's post-game is relatively limited due to the absence of New Game Plus and endgame content. Completion triggers several minutes of cutscenes showcasing the consequences of your choices. Afterwards, you're returned to the main menu.

From the main menu, you can start a new game or reload a previous save. Autosaves exist before the point of no return and the final encounter, allowing replay of these sections with altered choices for different story outcomes.

Reloading to before the point of no return lets you revisit earlier regions. Enemies won't scale to your level, making it satisfying to explore Dawnshore, for example, with high-level gear, completing missed side quests and collecting missed items.

In summary, that's what awaits after conquering Avowed.

Avowed is available now on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.
